Oro

Location:: Barcelona, Catalonia
Status:: Split-up
Formed in:: 1982

Genre:: Heavy Metal
Themes:: Heavy Metal, Social reality
Last label:: Ariola

Years active:: 1981-1982 (as Cans), 1982-1983

Formerly called Cans, the band changed their name to Oro when Jimmy Reitz and Juan Calleja entered in the band. The band split a year after, in 1983, when Jimmy Reitz went to form part of the band Tigres de Metal. As a tribute, that band changed its name to Tigres de Oro (and later to Tigres to release their debut). Obviously, this band, Oro, is not an earlier incarnation of Tigres.
